What do I need to know before moving to Bologna?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Bologna, they said...

"Bologna is a vibrant city with a rich cultural heritage and a lively atmosphere. Expats should be aware that the city is quite small and can be quite crowded during peak times. It is important to research the cost of living in Bologna before moving, as it can be quite expensive. Expats should also be aware that the city is quite traditional and conservative, so it is important to respect local customs and traditions. Additionally, it is important to learn some basic Italian before moving to Bologna, as English is not widely spoken. Finally, expats should be aware that the weather in Bologna can be quite unpredictable, so it is important to be prepared for all types of weather," explained one expat living in Bologna, Italy.
